Thanks mcord....but I GIVE UP--I get the error:<bootloader> [ERR] Command error!!! when I type in: fastboot oem get_identifier_token on the HTC DEV site. Nothing should be this hard and this aggravating. Im just going to send the tablet in to HTC have them fix it. Since they will put HC on it I will purchase a NEW device (without the HC update on it) and then sell the fixed tablet---> its just not worth the aggravation
